When the village chief heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Young man, it seems that you still have a little research on us, and you actually know that there is a waterfall in our village?"

Jiang Fan smiled slightly and said: "You're right, when I came, I did have some research on this village, do you think, village chief, after all, I came here to handle the case, so you will take me to that waterfall?"

The village chief said, "Okay, of course there is no problem, I'll take you there now." ”

After that, the village chief took Jiang Fan to the deeper part of the village, and when he walked to the end of the village, he could see through the scenery of the entire cliff mountain at a glance, and next to it was a waterfall, standing here and looking into the distance, the scene could be described as picturesque.

The village chief pointed to the big waterfall and said, "Xiao Jiang, this is the only waterfall in our village, I don't know what you want to do with this waterfall?"

Jiang Fan didn't answer, looked around and said, "Village chief, their family lived near here in the previous disappearance case, right?"

The village chief paused for a moment and said: "I really don't know this very well, I was still young at the time, how can I remember this, don't you say?"

Jiang Fan glanced at the village chief and said, "Well, are there any older generations in the village?"

The village chief thought for a while, nodded and said, "I remember that there is an old man in the old Liu family, who is older than me, why don't you go and ask him." ”

Jiang Fan asked, "Then please ask the village chief to lead the way!"

The village chief said embarrassedly: "I'm really sorry, I guess I can't take you to that place, after all, I'm here to greet those policemen from the city, so there's no way to take you to Lao Liu's house, I've been away for so long, I'm afraid that those policemen won't see me when they come out for a while!"

Jiang Fan said: "It's okay village chief, I represent them, you just take me to Lao Liu's house!"

The village chief shook his head and said, "No, one is one, two is two, do you have a police ID?

Jiang Fan nodded and said, "Okay, village chief, since you say so, I really can't refute you, you go and receive those policemen!"

The village chief said, "I'm really embarrassed, come back to me if you need anything later!"

Jiang Fan grabbed the village chief who wanted to leave and said, "Then you can at least tell me the approximate location of Lao Liu's family!"

The village chief thought for a while and said: "Lao Liu's family is in the west of the village, you can get there by walking, and it's not very far from here, but the old man Liu of the Lao Liu family is very stubborn and has a very bad temper, you have to be careful, I don't dare to mess with that person, after all, his qualifications are older than me!"

Jiang Fan spread his hands helplessly and said, "Okay, since that person is so terrifying, then I'll be careful!"

The village chief ran away as if he had done something wrong, and Jiang Fan walked towards the west of the village in the direction that the village chief pointed out just now.

I met many people on the way, and they all greeted Jiang Fan warmly, but every time Jiang Fan mentioned the matter of Old Man Liu to those people, those people seemed to have heard something that they shouldn't hear, and hurriedly hid to the side.

"What's going on?" Jiang Fan's second monk muttered to himself in confusion, and when he saw a peasant uncle who was ploughing the land, Jiang Fan walked over and asked, "Hello uncle, can I ask you a question?"

The uncle stopped what he was doing, wiped his sweat and said, "Okay, brother, if you have anything to say, just ask, I will know everything!"

Jiang Fan nodded, and then asked cautiously, "Uncle, do you know where the direction of the Liu family lives?

When the uncle heard the three words of Old Man Liu, the expression on his face was the same as that of the previous few people, but he did not avoid the topic and ran away, but frowned and asked: "Little brother, why are you asking the address of Old Liu's house for no reason? You won't go to him, will you?"

Jiang Fan nodded and said, "Uncle, I've always wanted to know why, why everyone has such an expression when they hear me ask the address of Lao Liu's house, you are exactly the same as theirs, but you are not as exaggerated as them!"

The uncle shook his head and said, "Little brother, you misunderstood, in fact, it wasn't because you were afraid, but because you didn't want to have anything to do with the people of the old Liu family!"

Jiang Fan nodded, and then began to listen carefully to the uncle about the reason.

The uncle threw the tools for plowing the land on the ground, put his clothes on it, and then sat down and said: "If you want to talk about this old Liu family, there is nothing bad, and I haven't done anything hurtful, but everyone just hates him and doesn't want to have anything to do with their family, especially the old man Liu of the old Liu family, it's just how far he has seen how far he has avoided it, for fear that he will be able to talk!"

Jiang Fan frowned and asked, "But what is the reason for this?"

Uncle shook his head and said: "This, I really don't know, but at the beginning, there was a rumor that the old man Liu of the old Liu family didn't know what was going on, and he provoked the water god here, some people said that he had urinated in the water, and some people said that it was because the old man Liu of the Liu family threw cigarette butts into the water, and there were many theories, and everyone was getting farther and farther away from the Liu family!"

Jiang Fan said: "But why do you say that? Could it be that someone has seen it or someone has evidence?"

Uncle thought for a while and said: "I didn't see it with my own eyes, but there is still evidence, there is a cigarette butt that has been smoked by the water, and only the old man Liu of the Liu family smokes in our village, and the other villagers don't smoke at all, when the old man Liu was young, there was also a rebellious time, he escaped from the cliff mountain alone to work outside, and as a result, he didn't catch anything for a few years, but he learned to smoke!"

Jiang Fan nodded, although what the uncle said had loopholes in some places, and it didn't sound so reliable, but at least he knew that this Liu Lao was not a demon or a monster, and he could still communicate.

Then the uncle secretly pointed out the direction of Liu's hometown to Jiang Fan, and Jiang Fan was surprised, because the direction he pointed to was completely opposite to the direction pointed by the village chief.

Who should I believe? Jiang Fan fell into deep thought, but now that he has a lot of time, let's go to the west of the village as mentioned by the village chief first, after all, he has already walked so far, and he is not short of these steps.

So Jiang Fan got up and started to set off, knowing that when he came to the end, the surrounding portals had been asked, and there was no Liu family, Jiang Fan began to think about why this village chief deceived himself.

So Jiang Fan turned around and walked towards the east of the village, and at this moment, Jiang Fan's mobile phone rang, and it was Director Huang calling.

"Director Huang, is there anything wrong with calling me?" Jiang Fan asked.

Director Huang said, "Where have you gone? I haven't seen anyone for a while." ”

Jiang Fan said: "That's the case Director Huang, I'll come over first to look for clues, we have found the place in Xiaomei's dream, but we don't know which one is the victim, and maybe that place has been razed to the ground, so I want to ask someone with more seniority." ”

After hearing this, Director Huang nodded and said: "Okay, you pay attention to safety, you are not familiar with this cliff mountain, if you accidentally fall down, you will definitely die!"

Jiang Fan nodded and then hung up the phone, and set off towards the east of the village, which was much less crowded than the west of the village, and it didn't look like it was thriving.

Jiang Fan casually knocked on the door of the family, and a middle-aged woman came out, Jiang Fan asked, "Hello Auntie, do you know which house the Liu family is?"

When the woman heard this, she was about to close the door directly, Jiang Fan hurriedly stopped the woman's movements and said, "Auntie, tell me, as long as you tell me, I promise nothing will happen!"

The woman sighed helplessly, then pointed to a room without saying a word, and closed the door.

Jiang Fan looked at the house that the woman was pointing to, and only saw an isolated room.
